Getting pre-approved before you shop means you can get excited about your next car because you know what you can afford. A dedicated SAFE Loan Fulfillment Specialist will partner with you to help you make an informed financing decision during the car buying process.
Pre-approval helps you understand the total dollar amount you can shop for. Make sure to factor in about 10% for taxes, DMV fees, and warranties. Also keep in mind that your final APR can only be determined after you’ve chosen the exact car you want, since it’s impacted by several factors including car age, mileage, make, and model.
